Hey! It’s totally okay to be a beginner. We all start somewhere. I recognized the plot points in the beginning as a die-hard Fate fan, and it definitely did strike me as more of a fan fiction than an original work. It's great that you're trying to make it its own thing, though. Getting inspired by things you love is completely normal (we all do that, right? ^^), but at some point, it can get into plagiarism territory if you get what I mean? Improving at writing means learning how to structure stories, write character depth and conflicts, etc., which can’t really be done by just copying exactly what you see in others’ work. Anyways, I wish you luck with your writing journey.
